Sleep Like a Baby Using These 3 Oils!

 I've suffered from sleep problems for many years, and believe me when I say I've tried quite a few tricks and treatments to deal with the problem. Nothing seemed to work, but I've finally discovered a secret that helps me sleep like a baby. Surprisingly, the solution has nothing to do with my sleeping position, my mattress quality, or my dietary habits, and I must admit that at first, I was a bit skeptical about it working. But it turns out that a mixture of very simple aromatic oils can greatly contribute to your quality of sleep, and surprisingly the most effective way to use it is to apply it to your feet! Why on the feet? How are these mixtures prepared, and why is it so effective? These are questions I also asked myself and below I’ll answer them for you so that you can enjoy nights of quality uninterrupted sleep.

Benefits of a calming oil foot rub before bedtime 

This mixture should be sufficient for 24 to 48 uses, depending on the amount sprayed in each use.

How do these oils improve quality of sleep? 

Magnesium oil: The mineral magnesium is the fourth most common in the body and the second most common in body cells. It has many functions that include, among other things, helping the blood and heart system to function, regulating blood sugar levels, maintaining bone structure and two actions that are closely related to our sleep: relaxing the muscles and relieving stress and emotional pressure. Thanks to all these, magnesium oil contributes greatly to improving the quality of sleep. 

Lavender oil: This aromatic oil is extracted from the purple blossoms of the lavender plant, and many consider it one of the best oils for body care and treatment of various cosmetic problems. Researchers have already concluded, based on previous studies, that the scent of lavender is sufficient to reduce feelings of depression and anxiety, thereby contributing to improved sleep quality. In addition to using this oil in your mixture, you can also add a drop or two of it on your pillow before bedtime. 

Chamomile oil: This oil is produced from chamomile flowers and has a wide range of health properties, from the treatment of stress to muscle pain due to its anti-inflammatory components. Because of the chamomile plant’s calming effect, the oil produced from it is recommended for use when suffering from anxiety and insomnia. 

In conclusion, I want to reiterate that this method worked for me, but it's far from being the only treatment option. I've heard of quite a few people who only drank chamomile tea a few hours before bedtime, or only put lavender in their rooms and still fell asleep like babies. I’m not ruling out any of these methods but this mixture of oils is the solution that managed to get rid of the insomnia and fatigue that haunted me for years. Try it yourself and you may finally get that uninterrupted relaxing night of sleep you’ve been hoping for.

This leafy green is one of the best natural sources of magnesium

Magnesium is the mineral du jour. Not only does it help reduce inflammation, improve sleep, and even repair DNA, but it also “participates in many other physiological processes within the body,” confirms nutritionist Itziar Digon.

While you can take magnesium suplements, it’s even better to consume a magnesium-rich diet filled with fruits and vegetables. One food that’s an especially good source? Spinach. Not only is it filled with magnesium, but it can be cooked in a number of ways that don’t impact the nutritional benefits of the mineral. Nutritionist Paula Martin Clares notes that spinach is great for the “health of the skin, hair and bones because — in addition to magnesium — it contains calcium, iron, potassium, phosphorus, B vitamins, and vitamins A ,C, E and K.”

Why is everyone so obsessed with magnesium?

Much like vitamin D, many of us are deficient in magnesium. However, we need it because it‘s involved in hundreds of bodily processes. “It keeps the muscles and immune system in good condition,” Digón explains to us, noting that it can also reduce tiredness and fatigue.

Isabel Viña Bas, resident doctor of endocrinology and nutrition at the supplement brand IVB Wellness Lab explains: “Magnesium is the second most abundant mineral within each of our cells. It is needed for more than 300 metabolic reactions, two of the most important being correct muscle contraction and relaxation (including in the blood vessels and heart) as well as optimal nerve function.” However, studies confirm that many of us are magnesium deficient, with common symptoms including muscle heaviness, insomnia and fatigue.

Magnesium in spinach

Spinach is a tried-and-true superfood for a reason: it’s low in calories (just seven per cup) yet rich in antioxidants that protect the liver, colon and eyes. As the doctor Olivier Courtin-Clarins notes in his book Beauty In My Recipes, spinach also promotes digestive wellbeing thanks to its high fiber content. It also helps stimulate bowel function and can aid in the body’s natural detox processes. With 24 mg of magnesium per cup of raw spinach, eating the green is a win-win for keeping everything running smoothly.

Is it better to eat spinach raw or cooked?

Leafy green vegetables like spinach can be eaten raw or cooked since heating them does not destroy magnesium; in fact, when spinach is cooked, the magnesium content actually rises. (Cooked spinach contains 157 mg of magnesium.) “While cooked vegetables lose a certain amount of water-soluble vitamins, the capacity of the body to absorb minerals such as magnesium, iron, and calcium is actually increased after cooking, since the molecular structure becomes more bioavailable,” explains Digón. To that end, she recommends eating cooked spinach at night to aid digestion and absorption and promote a good night’s sleep.

Easy ways to include spinach in your diet

With that in mind, there are a variety of ways that spinach can be added to the diet. Try spinach as a salad base as it works well with lots of other ingredients. For example, Courtin-Clarins advises combining spinach with cherry tomatoes, olive oil and white wine vinegar to create a simple salad. For extra nutrients, include a serving of protein such as chicken, turkey or tuna, and a small amount of healthy fats, like walnuts or avocado.

You can also add spinach to a smoothie. Nutritionist Beatriz Larrea recommends blending the leafy green with banana, blueberries, raspberries, hemp seeds and nut milk. Or, toss a handful of spinach into pasta dishes, soups, omelettes and stir fries for an extra boost of vitamins, fibre, antioxidants and minerals.
